As I sit in this my home

Comfortable and warm

Outside my door in the sky

Brews a winter storm

The open heavens gazing down

Can't believe their view

In a world so full of hearts

The righteous are but few

Mother Earth and Father Time

Stare across the land

Questioning the whys and hows

Of the earthly man

Reflecting on the yester years

And what has now become

They nod their heads in disbelief

Of what we men have done

They shed a tear and let it fall

To rest upon a cloud

The tear seeps through in tiny drips

To fall upon earth's crowd

But as it enters through the gates

Where mortals' hearts are vain

The coldness here untouched by gods

Transforms their sorrowed rain

The bitter cold of frozen hearts

Transcends above the ground

Consumes the tears which they have sent

And only snow falls down

Their message lost to all mankind

We've messed it up again

And now we hide inside our homes

As winters' storms begin
